I am so grateful that I was invited to participate in this once in a lifetime experience. What a brilliant opportunity to see the contrasting textures, fruit, tenure, and spirit of the vintages and juice! In the past, I have considered 5 wines as King of U.S. wine. They are Ridge Monte Bello, Philip Togni, Burgess Cab Sauv, Diamond Creek, and old vintages of BV Georges Latour. I think I have to add Dominus to my list…

A huge THANK YOU goes out to Brian Owens, Mark Paul, and Wink Restaurant.

Thank you to George Edwards for the great pictures here!

Also, Thank You to Mark St. Clair and the Wink Restaurant Staff, Michael Vilim (Mirabelle Restaurant), Devon Broglie (Whole Foods & MS Candidate), the Texas Wine & Food Foundation, and to Dominus Estate for the creation, wine, food, time, attention to every detail, and passion of this day! It makes me extremely proud to be a part of such a delicious community.
